They were damned lucky to make the Apollo programme a success (not counting Apollo 1, as Scribs points out).*

But faking it would have been a far greater challenge. And eventual revelation of the fakery (always an absolute certainty) would have done ten times more propaganda damage than the moon landings did good.

Think about it. Just ain't plausible.

* And if it was all faked, where did Grissom, White and Chaffee ever get to?
